creating websites with linux 7.2

[Chris Chabot]

"How to create a website": I would sugest the linuxdoc.org and other 
sources of howto's.. there's plenty of documentation on that alreadt
"Maximize bandwidth": The smartest thing to do would be to run 
'mod_gzip', it compresses html pages before transmiting them, thus 
saving a lot of bandwidth. Also, very obvious but often overlooked, when 
designing the webpages, keep the size down as much as posible ;-)
